I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Microsoft (Prag) in Feb 2021

Recruiter found me on linkedin, we had a 30-min and then they sent me an invite for a 1-h talk with a hiring manager. Then there were four 1-h online interviews in one day with the representatives from different teams

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2017
Interview
Sort of sucked. The guy turned his chair back at me, and pretended he wasn't listening. I didn't get invited back in after lunch. The other part was all behavioral, with a laser shining on a spinning disk that was half black, and half white. I had lunch with someone on campus after, but didn't get invited back after lunch.
